Embedding desired behaviors in autonomous vehicles is a difficult problem at best and in general probably impossible to completely resolve in complex dynamic environments. Future technology demands the deployment of small autonomous vehicles or agents with large-scale decentralized swarming capabilities and associated behaviors. Various techniques inspired by biological self-organized systems as found in forging insects and flocking birds, revolve around control approaches that have simple localized rule sets that generate some of the desired emergent behaviors. To computationally develop such a system, an underlying organizational structure or framework is required to control agent rule execution. Thus, autonomous self-organization features are identified and coalesced into an entangled-hierarchical framework. The use of this self-organizing multi-objective evolutionary algorithmic approach dynamically determines the proper weighting and control parameters providing highly dynamic swarming behavior. The system is extensively evaluated with swarms of heterogeneous vehicles in a distributed simulation system with animated graphics. Statistical measurements and observations indicate that bio-inspired techniques integrated with an entangled self-organizing framework can provide desired dynamic swarming behaviors in complex dynamic environments.

Multi-objective optimization (MO) is a fast-developing field in computational intelligence research. Giving decision makers more options to choose from using some post-analysis preference information, there are a number of competitive MO techniques with an increasingly large number of MO real-world applications. Multi-Objective Optimization in Computational Intelligence: Theory and Practice explores the theoretical, as well as empirical, performance of MOs on a wide range of optimization issues including combinatorial, real-valued, dynamic, and noisy problems. This book provides scholars, academics, and practitioners with a fundamental, comprehensive collection of research on multi-objective optimization techniques, applications, and practices.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of aeronautics. It discusses both small and large aircraft and their control strategies, path planning, formation, guidance, and navigation. It also examines applications of drones and other modern aircraft for inspection, exploration, and optimal pathfinding in uncharted territory. The book includes six sections on agriculture surveillance and obstacle avoidance systems using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), motion planning of UAV swarms, assemblage and control of drones, aircraft flight control for military purposes, the modeling and simulation of aircraft, and the environmental application of UAVs and the prevention of accidents.

As autonomous technologies continue to progress, teams of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles will play an increasingly important role in civilian and military applications. A multi-UAV system relies on communications to operate. Failure to communicate remotely sensed mission data to the base may render the system ineffective, and the inability to exchange command and control messages can lead to system failures. This thesis presents a unique method to control communications through distributed mission planning to engage under-utilized UAVs to serve as communication relays and to ensure that the network supports mission tasks. The distributed algorithm uses task assignment information, including task location and proposed execution time, to predict the network topology and plan support using relays. By explicitly coupling task assignment and relay creation processes the team is able to optimize the use of agents to address the needs of dynamic complex missions. The framework is designed to consider realistic network communication dynamics including path loss, stochastic fading, and information routing. The planning strategy is shown to ensure agents support both data-rate and interconnectivity bit-error- rate requirements during task execution. In addition, a method is provided for UAVs to estimate the network performance during times of uncertainty, adjust their plans to acceptable levels of risk, and adapt the planning behavior to changes in the communication environment. The system performance is verified through multiple experiments conducted in simulation. Finally, the work developed is implemented in outdoor flight testing with a team of up to four UAVs to demonstrate real-time capability and robustness to imperfections in the environment. The results validate the proposed framework, but highlight some of the challenges these systems face when operating in outdoor uncontrolled environments.

The purpose of this thesis is to produce a closed-loop feedback mission planning tool that allows for the operator to control multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) within a mission. Different styles of UAVs and mission planners that are available on the market were evaluated and selected for their cost, size, ability to customize, and fit for mission work. It was determined that commercially available mission planners do not provide the level of automation required, such as allowing for different algorithms for assigning UAV tasks and for planning UAV flight paths within a mission. Comparisons were made between different algorithms for path planning and tasking. From these comparisons, a bio-inspired machine-learning algorithm, Genetic Algorithm (GA), was chosen for assigning tasks to UAVs and Dubins path was chosen for modeling UAV flight paths within the mission simulation. Since market mission planners didn't allow for control of multiple UAVs, or wouldn't allow for the operator to add algorithms to increase usability and automation of the program, it was decided to create a Graphic User Interface (GUI) that would allow the operator to customize UAVs and the mission scenario. A test mission scenario was then designed, which included 9 Points of Interest (POI), 1 to 3 Targets of Interest (TOI), 3 to 5 UAVs, as well as simulation options that modeled failure of a task or a UAV crash. Operator feedback was incorporated into the simulation by allowing the operator to determine a course of action if a failure occurred, such as reprogramming the other UAVs to complete the tasks left by the crashed UAV or reassessing a failed task. Overall mission times decreased for reprogramming the UAVs versus running a separate mission to complete any tasks left by the crashed UAV. Additional code was added to the GA and Dubins path to increase speed without decreasing solution fitness.

(cont.) In this research, we develop a UAV Mission Planner that couples the scheduling of tasks with the assignment of these tasks to UAVs, while maintaining the characteristics of longevity and efficiency in its plans. The planner is formulated as a Mixed Integer Program (MIP) that incorporates the Robust Optimization technique proposed by Bertsimas and Sim [12].
